Stablecoin market capitalization grew 48.9% during calendar 2025, adding $102.1 billion to reach $311 billion. AXG’s revenue increased nearly tenfold during its fiscal year; company revenue, trading activity and industry market capitalization are distinct measures with different reporting periods.

Tether’s USDT and Circle’s USDC remain the dominant stablecoins. At June 2026, their respective market capitalizations of $184.4 billion and $73.5 billion represented approximately 84.5% of the $305.1 billion global stablecoin market. Separately, Tiger Research estimated in February 2026 that approximately 99% of stablecoin market capitalization was U.S. dollar-pegged, underscoring both demand for digital dollars and policy concerns surrounding domestic-currency sovereignty.

McKinsey and Artemis estimate that stablecoin payments reached $390 billion on an annualized basis using December 2025 activity, more than double the previous year’s level. Business-to-business payments accounted for approximately $226 billion, increasing 733% year over year.

Asia-originated payments represented approximately $245 billion, followed by $95 billion from North America and $50 billion from Europe. These flows provide a commercial foundation for institutional supplier payments, cross-border settlement, payroll and treasury management.

Inflation and transaction costs reinforce the demand for more efficient financial services. Annual inflation reached 33.5% in Argentina and 31.51% in Türkiye in August 2026, while the World Bank’s third-quarter 2025 benchmark placed the average cost of sending a $200 remittance at 6.36%. Such conditions can encourage demand for dollar access and lower-cost transfers, although a dollar peg does not eliminate U.S. inflation exposure.
